What if You Could Design Your Mind with What You Need to Succeed?

From the beginning of my career, way back in 1997 all I ever wanted to do was empower people. It’s mind-boggling when I reflect on how that purpose-driven goal put me on stages in front of thousands and thousands of people. From sold-out amphitheater shows in Canada to corporate, college and state fair gigs throughout America, cruise ships across the planet to repeatedly flying in for the U.S....
